Horse & Rider Training & Coaching Services
Young Horse Breaking
Holly works with a young horse to ease them into new situations with minimal stress. The horse gets one-on-one attention every day as they start to experience all aspects of being a suitable mount for almost any discipline. She believes in teaching a horse confidence, not fear. Whether the horses are off to the races or the show ring, they come out of a 60 day program with not only the riding basics but also manners to tie, bath and behave for vets, farriers, etc.
Eventing, Dressage & Jumper Rider Training
Successful riders start with the right attitude and training. It isn't just about how high your horse can jump but how well you and your horse work together as a team to accomplish success both over fences and on the flat.
Holly is a recognized leader in the Eventing world and works with horses and riders to build a solid relationship where they can challenge themselves and come out feeling great about what they did. She makes her riders feel comfortable and at ease which the horse in turn feels and the outcome is a happy horse and rider who climb up the riding ladder more quickly than with other coaches.
Pricing: $100 for private ship in lesson; $75 for semi-private group ship in lesson
Also available for Clinics to help your barn riders with their advancement in the show ring. Clinic fees are $1500 per day plus travel.
Training Board
Not every rider has the time to give their horse a regular routine of work. With Holly's Training Board service, horses are boarded in a wonderful, caring facility where they get regular exercise and training by someone other than the owner.
She and her staff provide full boarding services including regular turnout (individual or in groups), boots & blankets on and off as needed, regular feeding schedule, quality hay and lots of attention. They can also help with veterinary care, farriers and other services that your horse may need.
On top of the great training that your horse will get, this package includes regular lessons to improve horse and rider skills as a team, if you wish.
Pricing: $2000 per month for training board.
Freelance Coaching
If boarding with Holly is not an option, She can come to you. Holly is available for occassional off-property teaching. If your horse needs some professional training or if you, as a rider, need some coaching on your own horse at home, she is available to help.
Show Coaching
Going to a horse show can be very nerve-wracking, even for the most seasoned rider. Having someone there to support you and provide you with tips and techniques can make all the difference in the outcome of your show experience.
As a student of Holly Jacks, you can have her come with you to shows to provide you with that little bit of extra support that you need. Not only does she help you as you go into the ring or out on the course, she also helps you to ease your fears and stresses with her infectious attitude to having fun.
Testimonial
"Holly is amazing! I have tried several coaches over the last few years and each have taught me a bit here and there but I was still not feeling confident in my riding. Since riding with Holly, I have become much more confident and so has my horse. She is a great teacher and also makes each lesson or schooling session so much fun. Thanks Holly!"
